James Gunn
to Write Script for
'Suicide Squad 2' According to 'The Hollywood Reporter,' Gunn is also in contention to direct the film. Gunn was fired from Disney in July after the discovery of controversial old tweets he sent out nearly a decade ago. He has mostly laid low since
his dismissal. Gunn's departure was shocking given both 'Guardians of the Galaxy' movies have garnered very strong reviews and earned over $1.5 billion at the box office worldwide. The first 'Suicide Squad' raked in a healthy
$746 million worldwide itself,
despite poor reviews. Its sequel has since been slow to get started and does not yet have a release date.
